Merger control notice and disclosure rules: Supreme Court limits penalties, rejects reopening of approved combination, and sets aside adverse findings...
HC allowed the petition, set aside the cancellation order and the appellate dismissal, and directed the petitioner to comply with Rule 10A by adding bank details on the GST portal.
